T.J. Anthony

T.J. Anthony is an Emmy Award-winning, multifaceted journalist proud to serve his hometown of Atlanta, Georgia, as an anchor and reporter. He covers a wide range of topics, including crime, politics, sports and entertainment, with a focus on the people who make up the community.

Anthony joins CBS Atlanta after working in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, where he was an anchor and reporter for the CBS station. During his time in the capital city, he covered major breaking news across the state, including the assassination attempt on then-presidential candidate Donald Trump, the arrest of Luigi Mangione - the suspected killer of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson - pivotal House and Senate races, several major plane crashes, Harrisburg's rising homicide rate and the Philadelphia Eagles' Super Bowl win, which brought the Lombardi Trophy to Pennsylvania.

Anthony has long been part of the CBS family. Prior to his move north, he worked just down I-75 at the CBS affiliate in Macon, Georgia.

He is thrilled to be back home in Atlanta. If you see him out, don't hesitate to say hello. You can also email him with story ideas or just to connect at TJ.anthony@cbs.com.
